Folk Music: TheBasics
gives a brief introduction to British and American folk music. Drawing
upon the most recent and relevant scholarship, it will focus on
comparing and contrasting the historical nature of the three aspects of
understanding folk music: traditional, local performers; professional
collectors; and the advent of professional performers in the twentieth
century during the so-called "folk revival." The two sides of the folk
tradition will be examined--both as popular and commercial expressions. Folk Music: The Basics
serves as an excellent introduction to the players, the music, and the
styles that make folk music an enduring and well-loved musical style.
Throughout, sidebars offer studies of key folk performers, record
labels, and related issues to place the general discussion in context.
